Congressman Scott Peters has a message for President Trump.

Today, and every day, we pay tribute to Dr. King, those who fought by his side, and those who followed in his footsteps by renewing our commitment to complete the work he started, strengthening the cause of freedom, and defending the promise of progress for all Americans. #MLKDay

.@realDonaldTrump, 800,000 Americans are going without pay. Re-open the government, let workers get their paychecks and then we can discuss how we can come together to protect the border. #EndTheShutdown

What is original in the President’s proposal is not good. What is good in the proposal is not original. Democrats will vote next week to add additional border security funding for ports of entry, advanced technology for scanning vehicles for drugs & immigration judges.

Democrats were hopeful that @realDonaldTrump was finally willing to re-open government & proceed with a much-needed discussion to protect the border. Unfortunately, reports make clear that his proposal is a compilation of previously rejected initiatives. https://t.co/MFwebWSevG
